Amazing... or not?
It's incredible how a game so bugged and frustrating (with achievements that are practically impossible to achieve) that depends entirely on rng and repeating the SAME thing thousands of times, has "very positive" reviews. Sometimes, the gamer community never ceases to surprise me...

I mean if you don't count the achievements, the game is extremely good, fun and cute
If you don't like this type of game, it's ok, it's your opinion but the reviews are not center on achievements !
So yes the game diserve those reviews :D

And for achievements, yes it's weird, the last achievements is probably bugged, we're continusly searching

Its an RNG walking simulator my friend

Not even the ability to move sideways is useful... it's just there to give you the false sensation that you are "playing" and not looking at an interactive wallpaper.

Sounds like someone has a case of Salty ♥♥♥♥♥ Disease.

It's a fun, unique dogsled game based on RNG events, dogs, and player choices. Sorry that's not your thing but you can just refund it and move on.

Which bugs did you encounter? While I see the rng might be annoying I personally like it. And the directions actually matter as there are certain areas that you can only reach when you "aim" for them.
So far I finished about 15 runs and am aiming for the last achievements which are taking a while due to said rng. But it is what it is and I play for the calmness, music, art style and the voiceacting. So for me it's amazing! #PetThePups #PetsPetsPets

This studio has only 6 developers total, and it's their first and only game. They are experienced in other companies, not necessarily in gaming (except for the only programmer, who worked at Obsidian and Blizzard), but they didn't have a lot of budget. The publisher is a bit bigger, but it doesn't really matter.

For example, Subsistence is only ONE guy ,and the game works better, and all the achis are working.... no excuses . 6 is more than enough .
Project zomboid was made by 3 guys ....
Strandew valey was made by 1 guy ....

You missed the point of my comment. I specifically quoted what I was answering to.

Yeah: sifu, scorn, pacific drive, unrailed... this is not a "little" game dev company ...

That definitely doesn't make them multimillion dollar company...

So .. you like the game or not ?

I think it´s good, though a bit underwhelming. Ironically for someone buying this game, I really despise hunting/trapping/hurting animals (even in games); it makes me feel horrible, even when it's to survive, so the fact most of the events are hunting - and there´s a lack of other things to explore and collect in comparison was a little dissapointing to me. I´ve yelled at my character so many times for having to shoot the poor prey animal several times before actually killing them, haha. Also the lack of things to do, and story to experience once you get to the Red Lantern home is a shame. I expected more at that point. I do love the concept though, the gameplay (although a bit repetitive, that's true) and overall enjoy the game. I'd probably give it 7/10.
